Re: Karizma/Karizma R Ownership Experience

Thanks [MENTION=90567]motonomad[/MENTION]. I was actually surprised to see a reply to my post I posted long back. .

Could you post some pictures of it ? Could you detail on what was done, parts changed / used and what was the cost ?

Re: Karizma/Karizma R Ownership Experience

Hi [MENTION=90567]motonomad[/MENTION], may we get the pictures and 'how to' regarding this mod! This sounds good as I am experiencing heating issues in my karizma R 09 model. Got it serviced recently still the same issue.

Re: Karizma/Karizma R Ownership Experience

"Where there is a will there is a way"

Below are the mentioned items i bought of second hand from bangalore's scrap yard aka 'gujri' in shivajinagar and some new ones

1. ZMR right clutch case(second hand)
2. pulsar 220 oil cooler(second hand) = 1500(inclusive of item 1 & 2)
3.o rings= 45
4. ZMR oil cooler pipes = 750
5. p220 oil cooler pipes=500
6. oil cooler hinges and oil cooler cutting and welding = 300
7. labour chrges= 1500




R&D and mods
1. Had both the left and right clutch case powder coated to silver color as ZMR clutch case is some what golden color. Make sure you have it washed properly before giving out to powder coating my mechanic gave the oil plunged case as it is and the etching process was not carried out properly now the coating is peeling off.
(suggest u keep it as it is wont make much difference)

2. Buy a zmr oil cooler and not p220 as it wont give u an exact fit and as in my case had to install horizontally like p220 and caused impact issues with fender so had to rise the front fork by 1inch (additional cost not mentioned).go for vertical arrangement by welding a clamp and mounting the oil cooler vertically giving you better cooling. I couldnt as i had already installed crash gaurd and fog lamps. Also it will save u amount on p220 oil cooler pipes


3. The zmr does not have kicker so had to cut the kicker shaft yet leave it engaged with gears as gears wont engage without this shaft and zmr clutch case does not have provision for its housing so here on ur bike will become kicker less.

So after all the trial and error my bike looked something like shown in the attached images.


PS. THIS PROJECT WAS DONE BY ME USING A SKILLED MECHANIC AT MY OWN RISK SO SHOULD ANYONE WHO WANTS TO DO THIS MODIFICATION ON HIS.

Hi there co-XBHPIAN i have already replied on this thread with images. Regarding your 09 R model i suggest you to a step by step engine flush using a good quality engine flush, then use a semi synthetic oil preferably shell ax7 10w40 for a try and a proper vehicle tune up from a skilled mechanic to reduce engine heat problems, roughness and vibration of engine if any before thinking of going for the mod.

PS : I did this mod on my bike as i am a vivid motorcycle traveller and use my bike for long travells which involves the engine runnning at high rpm for a prolonged period.If you are travelling for short distances no need for this mod as karizma is detuned version of honda crf 230 and has proved its mettle internationally.
